REMARKS.
The receipts, which number about 900
head less than the run of last week, are
ample for the very moderate demand which
prevails in all the yards. The warm
weather restricts trade; and changes the
character OF the demand, neat light hogs
being most desirable, and selling at the
highest fgure-7la7sc; heavy tops bring
7ta7sc; some rough hogs selling under Z
and as low as Gle net. OF the receipts,
2, 10 head came over the Pennsylvania
Railroad, and 2,771 head over the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad.
